THOUGHT FOR TODAY
All food starting with p is comfort food: pasta potato chips, pretzels, peanut butter, pastrami, pizza, pastry.

Lasagna is not a dish my mother cooked, it’s a tradition that began with me. I found the recipe in the cook book that was given to me as a wedding gift. I’ve followed the same recipe for years and the family loves it. It is something I usually make to serve on Christmas Eve.
I wanted something special to serve but different from the Christmas dinner on Christmas Day. Everyone loved it and it’s been a favorite ever since.
But for today I’m going to make something much simpler and easier. On the menu today is:
Salmon Casserole
Makes 4 servings
1 7oz. can salmon, drained, bones and skin removed
4 cups soft bread crumbs
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 Tbsp. minced fresh parsley
3/4 cup milk
1 Tbsp. mayonnaise
1 tsp ground mustard
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp. paprika
In a large bowl combine salmon, bread crumbs, celery, green pepper, onion and parsley. In a small bowl, combine milk, mayonaise, mustard and pepper. Pour over salmon mixture and toss to coat evenly.
Transfer to a baking dish coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle with cheese and paprika. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for about 35 minutes or until heated through and top is golden brown.
Thankfully I have a toaster oven and I don’t have to turn on the big stove oven. It’s to be a hot day and I don’t want to make the house too warm.
We got the key problem fixed yesterday. DS#5 came over and managed to replace the battery in my key fob. They are available wherever they have watch batteries. My niece had called earlier and advised me not to try and get a new key as it is very expensive. With the fob powered up now, all is well.
I hope you all have a FANTASTIC Friday !
Life is a combination of magic and pasta.

Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
10,471. for Lasagna, a Christmas Eve tradition in our family
10,472. for my air fryer that also serves as a toaster oven
10,473. for fresh peaches available at the famer’s market
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters and EMT’s.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!

I love comfort food !
Happy Friday! I'll definitely be making this salmon casserole as soon as our temperatures dip ... whew! So glad your key challenge was resolved! Yes, replacements cost a pretty penny.
Another busy day but I did enjoy the read and visit. Love from down this was. Lasagna is one of our most favorite meals, and Chicken wings? I do like them but some one did some great PR and Ads to put the chic wing close to the top of the chart...
